No Lathe, Mitre Saw Bowl

I have no lathe so I decided to use my mitre saw to make a bowl. I made a centering jig that I clamped to the saw so I could use a central pin to rotate the bowl as I made each cut keeping it in the one position. The saw did a very good job and made a nice uniform bowl cut. I used my router to give the bowl a nice decorative bottom edge. I finished to 400 grit then used foodsafe oil and beeswax to shine up the bowl.It is made of spalted beech.

Thanks Farmer dude ,it was actually the quickest way I have found to make a bowl so war with no lathe.In my past projects on here I have used a router to make the bowl and a drill with a Forstner bit they both took much longer than the mitre saw.

Very cool, I like it. I thought about using a circular saw (on an axle or something, to keep it steady) on a bowl while it was on my lathe. It would save a ton of time with the gouge, to say the least.
